旧约 - 撒母耳记下(2 Samuel)第19章

And it was told Joab, Behold, the king weepeth and mourneth for Absalom.
And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son.
And the people gat them by stealth that day into the city, as people being ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!
And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, Thou hast shamed this day the faces of all thy servants, which this day have saved thy life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives, and the lives of thy concubines;
In that thou lovest thine enemies, and hatest thy friends. For thou hast declared this day, that thou regardest neither princes nor servants: for this day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased thee well.
Now therefore arise, go forth, and speak comfortably unto thy servants: for I swear by the LORD, if thou go not forth, there will not tarry one with thee this night: and that will be worse unto thee than all the evil that befell thee from thy youth until now.
Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told unto all the people, saying, Behold, the king doth sit in the gate. And all the people came before the king: for Israel had fled every man to his tent.
And all the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, The king saved us out of the hand of our enemies, and he delivered us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land for Absalom.
And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?
And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, even to his house.
Ye are my brethren, ye are my bones and my flesh: wherefore then are ye the last to bring back the king?
And say ye to Amasa, Art thou not of my bone, and of my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.
And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent this word unto the king, Return thou, and all thy servants.
So the king returned, and came to Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to conduct the king over Jordan.
And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, which was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.
And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went over Jordan before the king.
And there went over a ferry boat to carry over the king's household, and to do what he thought good. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king, as he was come over Jordan;
And said unto the king, Let not my lord impute iniquity unto me, neither do thou remember that which thy servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
For thy servant doth know that I have sinned: therefore, behold, I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD's anointed?
And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?
Therefore the king said unto Shimei, Thou shalt not die. And the king sware unto him.
And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king, and had neither dressed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came again in peace.
And it came to pass, when he was come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said unto him, Wherefore wentest not thou with me, Mephibosheth?
And he answered, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me: for thy servant said, I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go to the king; because thy servant is lame.
And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God: do therefore what is good in thine eyes.
For all of my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king: yet didst thou set thy servant among them that did eat at thine own table. What right therefore have I yet to cry any more unto the king?
And the king said unto him, Why speakest thou any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land.
And Mephibosheth said unto the king, Yea, let him take all, forasmuch as my lord the king is come again in peace unto his own house.
And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim, and went over Jordan with the king, to conduct him over Jordan.
Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even fourscore years old: and he had provided the king of sustenance while he lay at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.
And the king said unto Barzillai, Come thou over with me, and I will feed thee with me in Jerusalem.
And Barzillai said unto the king, How long have I to live, that I should go up with the king unto Jerusalem?
I am this day fourscore years old: and can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?
Thy servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?
Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, and be buried by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good unto thee.
And the king answered, Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good unto thee: and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee.
And all the people went over Jordan. And when the king was come over, the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned unto his own place.
Then the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him: and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also half the people of Israel.
And, behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said unto the king, Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and have brought the king, and his household, and all David's men with him, over Jordan?
And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to us: wherefore then be ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king's cost? or hath he given us any gift?
And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more right in David than ye: why then did ye despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king? And the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
撒母耳记下第十九章   第 19 章 

  约押 

  撒下 19:4-7> 直言犯上需要勇气,在原则问题上我能否站出来讲话? 

  19:4-7 我们有时必须要责备执政掌权之人。约押知道,他直言顶撞大卫一定会令大卫不悦,但是他明白事情必须如此行。他告诉大卫,如果他不安抚军队的心,嘉奖他们奋战的胜利,事情必定大大不妙;约押这种态度是值得效法的,因为有时我们应当直话直说。 

  撒下 19:8> 逆耳忠言大卫接受了,我会有他那样的胸襟吗? 

  19:8 大卫坐在城门口,因为那是生意交易与施行审判的地方。他亲自往那里去,表明他已经不再哀哭,心情恢复正常。 

  撒下 19:8-11> 受众人欢迎莫暗喜,被人孤立莫伤心,因为…… 

  19:8-11 几日以前,大多数以色列人还支持押沙龙的叛变,现在这一班百姓又要大卫回来作他们的王了。群众的心理变幻无常,因此服从更高的道德律,远胜过依从多数人的喜好作决定。依从圣经所定的道德原则,能帮助你不受群众的喜好和意见所影响。 

  撒下 19:13> 大卫立亚玛撒作元帅是任人唯亲吗? 

  19:13 大卫立亚玛撒作元帅是精明的政治安排。第一,亚玛撒曾经作押沙龙军队的元帅,立他作元帅,可以赢得叛军的效忠。第二,以他代替约押,处罚约押过去所犯的罪( 3:26-29 )。第三,亚玛撒对犹大的许多首领有很大的影响力( 19:14 )。凡此一切都有助于国家的统一。 

  撒下 19:19-20> 示每背叛大卫,为什么会获大卫宽容? 

  19:19-20 示每承认他的过错,求大卫王的饶恕,为要保全性命。他的计划暂时生效,因为这是祝贺大卫复国之日,不是将犯人处死的日子。但是在列王纪上 2 章 8 至 9 节告诉我们,大卫吩咐所罗门,以后要将他处死。 

  撒下 19:21-39> 公义的国度人人向往,哪里去寻? 

  19:21-39 大卫回到耶路撒冷,宽容大度、怜悯为怀,他不杀示每,再见米非波设时归回他一半产业并赏赐巴西莱的忠心。他的榜样立下公平治国的标准,但这只有到主基督来临,以公义治理国家的时候,才能充分地实现。 

  撒下 19:24-30> 一面之词往往难以辨别对错,究竟米非波设与洗巴哪一个说的话属实? 

  19:24-30 对于米非波设或洗巴究竟谁是谁非,大卫并不确知,圣经对这个问题未予解答(对于米非波设的描述,请看 9:1-13 ; 16:1-4 )。──《灵修版圣经注释》
